Who Wins
- Pre-6: You lose extended trades due to Xayah's superior DPS and Thresh's disengage tools, but win short poke exchanges.
- Post-6: You win teamfights decisively if Maokai lands engage, as your R combined with his CC chain is nearly unavoidable.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q bounces through minions to poke Xayah while staying behind Maokai's threat range.
- When Maokai lands W, immediately follow with E slow and auto attacks before they can disengage with Thresh lantern.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Push waves aggressively early to deny Xayah's feather setups and force Thresh to use mana on wave clear.
- After level 6, look for slow pushes into recalls when Maokai wants to roam.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't use E aggressively when Thresh Q is available, as you become an easy hook target without mobility.
- Avoid channeling R when Xayah has E ready, as her root can interrupt your ultimate and turn the fight.
